One thing that you may find intresting is that Healthy Gamer (another YT channel) would agree that cleaning is more restful than scrolling on your phone, he says that the mind is used to just turning stuff over while you're doing a mildly tedious task and that's something that we lack because we're always doing something mildly exciting instead.
A very real problem. I obviously can't speak for you, but I'd either wake up early to read or respectfully let everybody know that I want half an hour undisturbed.
This video is so eery to me as I came up with a similar idea this summer. I had three books on constant rotation: Heavy Analytic, Light Analytic, and Leisure. The idea was to read them in subsequently increasing dedicated intervals (Heavy 1x per week, Light 3x per week, Leisure almost everyday) and therefore make gains in varying genres and levels of depth in subjects of interest, but I've slowly diminished on using that format as school/other commitments have consumed more and more of my time. I also find myself neglecting reading due to the ease of scrolling for hours on social media instead of gathering the will to study for an hour or so each day (I also find reading hard even though its fulfilling). After watching this, I am going to try to reimplement the original schema, but by implementing your "book dropsets" so that my reading is more flexible day-by-day than sticking to a self-prescribed schedule. Your formula reminds me of the idea of "autoregulation" in lifting programs (dynamic double progression being a good example). Also, side-note, started watching your content recently as I am also someone who desires to learn many fields and enjoys deep conversation with the aim to strive towards truth, and have been blessed with the various nuggets of info you have put out (Zettelkasten in particular, the strength of learning to write well, and just overall motivation and reassurance of the value of seeking truth). Your channel is awesome and I hope your work inspires many more people as you have inspired me in my quest to know. Cheers. (sorry for the ramble! lol)
Thank you, I'm grateful to hear it all. It's cool to see you have been doing this already. Also to be fair to ourselves, even with all these techniques, sometimes life is just too busy sometimes. Either way, best of luck.
The problem with modern society is that they make you feel like you are a piece of shit if you don't read every day or being active all the day. What is the problem with setting without doing something productive?? And usually people who says that they finish a book every week, if you asked them about that book after a month they wouldn't remember anything about it.
This video will be one of my favourites mate. I always had this problem, the i want to read daily but couldn't do it becuase i was always reading one book at a time. Several books with different difficulty levels seem like the solution for me. Thank you for your time and effort.
Incredible video. You have a keen knack for always posting on the topics that I find myself pondering. I find my biggest struggle is, when I have time, feeling torn between writing and reading. Or, more specifically, allowing myself to read when I don't feel I've written a significant amount that day. Even as I write this, I can see the road to burnout in that thinking though. Cheers!
I love the idea of different weights of reading material. I have been making a concerted effort to read more classics and have found that listening to an audiobook whilst following along with the text is really helpful to keep me focused and it usually aids my understanding as well. I usually do this for an hour in the evening then switch to a contemporary novel before bed. Non-fiction is for lunch breaks and more difficult reads just a few pages a day with my first coffee in the early morning (currently Proust). Sometimes I feel so tired and have been quite hard on myself about having a break but I realise more and more that rest and a day off here and there actually helps with motivation, especially enjoying an evening of crafts (I knit, crochet and sew).
Great ideas, advice, and insights. One mindset change I've been working on is this--I like to read those who are smarter than me, as I figure that hopefully raises my intellectual level. But l try not to "worship" them; rather, I try to think, this is a smarter and wiser friend who's going to talk with me for a little each day to try and help me improve. Great work, sir!
Thanks, and I like that. I often just assumed they automatically knew better than me because they wrote a book, but that stopped any critical thinking.
I have a similiar system: a fiction book and a novel parallel. Sundays are for poetry and at least one hour of uninterrupted reading time. If there is no energy I try a short story from "A Glimpse of Truth" at least. But sometimes it has to be some yoga or a long walk without any podcast or music. It is true, that there would be always time for reading, but sometimes after hours of(knowledge) work, homework with kids and household you're simply done. No energy left for processing any information. And that is ok (as you said). Very good video, as always!
I can attest to having different levels of reading. I have a light personal development book and a heavy fiction book that I choose between depending on my energy level after work / exercise in the evening. I was very inconsistent with my reading before, but now I am able to keep a consistent 3-5 sessions a week!
Mainly for those who take the bus or train There Just take a short pocketable little book with you everyday Eventually you’ll get bored of you’re phone And you may end up reading a couple pages

I love the part about the Sets and dropsets. I read per chapter because it's like watching an episode of a series. Lately though, I've been tired and sometimes sick so I took a break from my "heavy set" (Crime and Punishment-Part 3) and ended up reading "The Long Walk" by Stephen King. It's more of an easy read. I also allot Sunday mornings for "Meditations" by Marcus Aurelius, it's a book that's not bingeable. I'd need time to reflect on each paragraph.
Grew up loving to read. Recently (last 5-10 years) a lot of that time has been taken over by gaming and skipping around the internet. Then I get consumed with all that time lost and what I 'needed' to be reading to catch up. Now I'm paralyzed with all the choices. And I don't just mean starting books. I have dozens that are on the go because I am always distracted by something else. 📚
Thank you for your videos! Some of your advice over this year has helped me lots to arrange my reading and learning more effectively, I thank you for that. :)
Your voice is calming to me, like a wise man teaching valuable lessons at every turn in life. While watching this video, I felt a glimpse that I’m on a good path, and I could listen to your voice, advice, or talking about books for hours. I’m not saying you should start right now, but maybe in the future, when you have time, consider starting a weekly podcast or something similar. I'd love to learn from you for hours. Keep up the great work. Hazrat Ali (A.S.) once said, “The one who teaches me even a single word is my master.” You are truly a master to me-Thanks for everything.
@@odysseas__ I might be wrong, but I think this is a bot comment. I couldn't find anything about this book except for some random channel recommending it on UA-cam Shorts with an AI voice.
I usually read on the commute between work/school and home! I often take public transport, so I have the time to read some pages. And… waiting for you to come to Italy! Ciao!
My problem is that I don’t like reading, my one moment were is did read a book for a short amount of time was reading a novel, and if the trick is finding my genre, I now struggle to sit through novels like that one. Also social media and TikTok especially takes most of my time
I still think reading more than one book is bad strategy, better focus in a single one and get it done with it. My view, I have read 3 books the last month, just doing the page per day strat and keeping the consistency in check. Great video mate, also my hand writting is getting somewhat good. Lets go boyz.
People who claim they don’t have time actually do. They would rather doom scrolling for hours or watch mindless television. In reality it’s just an excuse not to pick up a book.🤷🏼
I really appreciated this video and I’m always shocked by how your videos always seem to come to the exact time I need them. Although I’m still in my first years of high school and I obviously know that college will be way harder than this, I feel kinda blocked by the strict daily routine I have to follow, between the many hours at school and the also many hours of study I have to go through when I’m at home. Between these hard to follow schedules I’m finding really hard to keep alive my reading habits, do you have some advice? P.S. sorry for the butchered English but I’m not yet fluent in it
This only works for me but some of the easier ways I can somewhat stop myself from wasting away on my phone or something Is by not changing my clothes Yes it’s uncomfortable But uncomfortable keeps me from truly being completely comfortable and being comfortable makes it extremely easy for me to be lazy So staying uncomfortable in my outside clothes Sort of keeps me in that mindset of not being lazy
i try to read an average of 10 pages a day for 2 books(a 'hard one' and a 'simple one') to really limit the amount of energy so it takes around 2-3 months to finish books, that's fine on me. I get to digest them fully in case I gotta read more than 10 pgs I cap myself to 20pages
There is also a gigantic intellectual gap between those who read and those who do not. Unfortunately, self-perpetuated egos will broaden that gap; no one wants to admit that their synapses are weakened because they're unwilling to read. What's worse is when a person encounters a word they've never heard or seen before; they'll immediately blame an author for being pretentious, but such a situation usually indicates that the writer is simply more intelligent than their readers (and understandably so). 🐲✨🐲✨🐲✨
One thing that stuck with me after reading it in one of those "follow your passion" self help books was to treat your passion like people treat their secret love affair. They ALWAYS make time for it. Even if they have a full schedule, when the girlfriends texts they do find a way to sneak a meet-up in.
Award-winning author here. *Absolutely no one reads anymore.* In the grand scheme, not even 1% of the world's population properly sits down and deliberately commits themselves to both the joy and educational process.

Something I did not see particularly expanded was the using earlier in the day as a key anchor point for doing harder work. When you come home from your day job you are already tired. But if you set your alarm for an hour earlier each day and go to sleep on a schedule you will have the time you need to get some very high quality work done right away. It is hard to do, especially starting out before your body clock is adjusted. But "Early to bed and early to rise. Makes a man health, wealthy, and wise." he endured for hundreds of years for a reason. Around 15:50 you make an assertion about 50% the jobs in the "developed world", which isn't super clear anyway, being knowledge based. Not that I disagree per se and you do at least acknowledge that you don't have exact figures, but they why give an exact figure? That's basically just saying shit unqualified. The notion of 50% of jobs in fact NOT being knowledge based must require a very narrow band of what knowledge is. Merely knowing how to hold a plow requires knowledge. We aren't instinctively aware of how to farm. A job whose work is 'up here' and not your physical body is impossible because your mind is an phenomena arising from your bodies biology. Even if you accept the philosophical mind-body dualism, the mind is still entirely dependent upon the body to actually do anything. We are not minds on top of a stack of tragically required meat. You are correct that there aren't as many people doing work in mines and tilling fields by hand because they have in fact used their knowledge to do those jobs better, safer, and cheaper. Even in the paradigm presented it falls apart at even casual inspection. That said, I shouldn't try and resort to pedantry for feedback. My, hopefully constructive, criticism is that acknowledging you don't know something and then just saying some shit anyway, doesn't actually do anything other than damage your own credibility. If I were to rewrite that you could say "I don't have the statistics on this, but in my observation, labor is becoming more and more based upon what you know than what you can do." This both acknowledges your non-expertness in an honest way while still presenting the idea directly. Because I actually agree on that point since that is my observation as well. But without clarification or specifics the sentiment is close to pointless. "The only thing that I know, is that I know nothing," is great from a intellectual humility perspective. But kind of falls apart when you attempt to actually do something.
I did mention waking up early, and I also admitted I don't have the exact figure, then gave an approximation which is accurate enough to get my point across -I did Google it beforehand. It's really not a big deal.
@@odysseas__ Senpai noticed me! :P You are absolutely correct that it's really not a big deal. Especially given you are correct if in an imprecisely scoped way. I wasn't saying you should change it just maybe a more robust and comprehensive way to say the same thing. No shade intended of course. I did you mention getting up early I mostly mentioned it because it has by far and hands down the most effective thing for me personally. It won't be the case for everyone so it isn't like I have the right answer here. There are a bunch of neurology reasons for this that I will spare you at the moment. But to me truthfully one of the biggest advantages is because I can guarantee no matter what I can be awake before I need to be with just a bit of planning and once you have completed your hour or two of quality personal project progress propels powerfully, probably profoundly perhaps.
i am a big fan of always having a book with me. But always carrying a pen and post-its makes it difficult for me because they get alwas lost in my bag or I can't write properly bc I am standing in the train.
Thank sir for the all video free ❤❤ god bless you keep it up Some question How to read-- what thing to keep in mind while reading because sometimes books bore you some kind of point
Thanks, I appreciate it. It depends on your purpose in reading the book -you should look for anything interesting or in line with your learning/practical goals
This video is great if you don't have responsabilities for a few hours and use the time irresponsibly. People (mainly women) with children have more responsibilities and less free time. People that have to take public transportation for 4 hours a day and can't read cause they're either standing up and it's uncomfortable or the bus shakes too much don't have as much free time. Not everyone has the same 24 hours and we have to accept that. People that do get home and just watch TV for 2 hours straight tho, they can highly benefit from this.
How many books do you have in parallel at any given time ? Is it efficient to start different fictional & non-fictional books at the same time ? I might have 2 fictions + 1 non-fiction in parallel, depending on the mood... What do you guys think ?
The one and only holy eternal God created us in His image, according to His likeness. But we sinned and fallen short of the glory of God and the wages of sin is death and the verdict for our sins when the day comes for us to be judged by God is hell but God in his great love sent His only begotten Son, Jesus. fully God and fully man. And live a perfect life and died for our sins on the cross and after three days being buried He rose from the dead. The death that you and I deserve, Jesus take so He can pay and atone for our sins and give us eternal life and we can be with Him. Just like how a person may be guilty but because someone paid for his fine he is free to go that's what Jesus did for us. What only we need to do is to repent of our sins (turning away from every sins everyday) and believe and put our trust and faith on Him and what He did for us that He already paid for our sins in the cross, not trusting in our good deeds or works for our salvation or to get to heaven but on what He did for us in the cross and and actively following Him every day and building a relationship with Him. "faith working through love" "faith that has action or works"

You ALWAYS have the time! You just choose not to read because you dont want to!

There is also a gigantic intellectual gap between those who read and those who do not.

I did you mention getting up early I mostly mentioned it because it has by far and hands down the most effective thing for me personally. It won't be the case for everyone so it isn't like I have the right answer here.
There are a bunch of neurology reasons for this that I will spare you at the moment. But to me truthfully one of the biggest advantages is because I can guarantee no matter what I can be awake before I need to be with just a bit of planning and once you have completed your hour or two of quality personal project progress propels powerfully, probably profoundly perhaps.
i am a big fan of always having a book with me. But always carrying a pen and post-its makes it difficult for me because they get alwas lost in my bag or I can't write properly bc I am standing in the train.
9:22 my hack for that was to study a social science degree so that reading is the work /j
What to do when the notebook runs out of pages and i store it safely but there are other notebooks just like this one and now they have stacked up?
I never understoud the idea of speed read a book (beside in school/college).
Thank sir for the all video free ❤❤ god bless you keep it up
Some question
How to read-- what thing to keep in mind while reading because sometimes books bore you some kind of point
Thanks, I appreciate it. It depends on your purpose in reading the book -you should look for anything interesting or in line with your learning/practical goals
12:55 lubricate 😂
nice haircut!
Thanks
Anyone know the name of the painting at 1:52? I've seen it so many times but can't place it.
Le Désespéré by Gustave Courbet
This video is great if you don't have responsabilities for a few hours and use the time irresponsibly. People (mainly women) with children have more responsibilities and less free time. People that have to take public transportation for 4 hours a day and can't read cause they're either standing up and it's uncomfortable or the bus shakes too much don't have as much free time. Not everyone has the same 24 hours and we have to accept that. People that do get home and just watch TV for 2 hours straight tho, they can highly benefit from this.
What was the book at 2:16?
A Sand County Almanac by Aldo Leopold
Thanks!!
How many books do you have in parallel at any given time ? Is it efficient to start different fictional & non-fictional books at the same time ? I might have 2 fictions + 1 non-fiction in parallel, depending on the mood... What do you guys think ?
I have two going at once, and I try to avoid both being fiction just so I can focus on one storyline at once. That's just me though.
"Yeah we want to read the classics and feel smart"
that one mf who only reads BL manga: 🗿🗿🗿
lol at the reading and put on audio book on x2 speed hahahahhah; do you rekon it's bullshit?
I won't go as far to say it's useless all the time, but generally yeah. It's too fast and transient to really pick up anything and keep it.
You are so cute trump or kamala

The one and only holy eternal God created us in His image, according to His likeness. But we sinned and fallen short of the glory of God and the wages of sin is death and the verdict for our sins when the day comes for us to be judged by God is hell but God in his great love sent His only begotten Son, Jesus. fully God and fully man. And live a perfect life and died for our sins on the cross and after three days being buried He rose from the dead. The death that you and I deserve, Jesus take so He can pay and atone for our sins and give us eternal life and we can be with Him. Just like how a person may be guilty but because someone paid for his fine he is free to go that's what Jesus did for us. What only we need to do is to repent of our sins (turning away from every sins everyday) and believe and put our trust and faith on Him and what He did for us that He already paid for our sins in the cross, not trusting in our good deeds or works for our salvation or to get to heaven but on what He did for us in the cross and and actively following Him every day and building a relationship with Him. "faith working through love" "faith that has action or works"
